He could be a Bush Republican if he lived here
"Knesset Member Omri Sharon, the prime minister’s son, struck a deal with prosecutors that would see him plead guilty to a series of charges in connection with illegal fundraising during Ariel Sharon’s 1999 primaries campaign.
As a result of the guilty plea, Omri Sharon’s trial is expected to be shorter than usual. The young Sharon will admit to charges of keeping false corporate records, providing false testimony, and violating political fundraising laws.
Israeli television networks reported a deal has been struck, but the Justice Ministry declined comment on the matter. However, a senior State Prosecutor’s Office source told Ynet Sharon junior is indeed expected to plead guilty to the charges against him.
His plea will in effect end his political career, as the conviction would disqualify him from holding public service jobs for years. The sides have not agreed, however, on Sharon’s sentence, with prosecutors insisting on at least some jail time."
